I'm 18 years old, 5'8, 195lbs at about 23% bf.
I've been obsessed with strength and muscle my entire life, I was obese during childhood and then became anorexic as a result of trying to support myself and lose weight on my own at 12 years old. All 70lbs of it.
It's been a long long journey, to make a long story short. But my goal the whole time, through all the bullsh!t, is to be big and strong- and I'm done messing around with worrying what other people think. I've been lifting weights for years you could say, but of course I didn't start out knowing exactly what to do.
I've never done a TRUE gear cycle, I've "tried" it (I didn't exactly have it planned out realistically as you can imagine) twice. But, the source was my friends friend's FRIEND- I'm not gonna mess around with that. I like stability of SOME sort. As of now, I learned I need to take it slow and really wait for the right source, not settling for something that's too good to be true just because I'm desperate and wasting hundreds more dollars.
Newly, I started doing a Push- Pull- Legs split, looking like this:
M: Push
T: Pull
W: Legs & Abs
TH: Push
F: Pull
S: Legs & Abs
SU: Rest
I do this with a 3-4x6 rep scheme, and before each workout I sprint 12mph for 30 seconds.
Sometimes after the workout I'll practice my 40-yard dash.
My diet? Not perfect by any means, it's basically anything but cake, candy, chips and soda.
And I make sure I get in eggs, vegetables, fruit, lean meat, and a multi-vitamin twice a day.
I'm not looking to be shredded, my goal is to have a "Bear-Mode" look if you will, don't know how else to word it. I prefer strength over looks, but looks DO matter.
If you took the time out of your day to read this, I very much appreciate it. Thank you! -Leo
